Maybe, we'll see! GMTO suggestions?

The same thing, but in larger quantities!

For real though, there's not really anything I'd change. I'd be sort of curious to see what it looked like on the rounder 333 last, but I like it so much as is I wouldn't really want to change much of anything. I personally prefer the all-grain look to any two-material "galway"-esque makeup, but I know others feel differently.

I know we don't have 4 (I think only 3 have expressed interest), but is there any chance of the EB longwing in Tarnsjo Oak? I'm considering the Chukka, but I'm not sure I want to do both right now.

Alright friends, one last effort to pull this together before I commit to the chukkas. The following makeup would be my dream shoe.

This shoe:



In this leather (Oak Tarnsjo):



On either a Dainite (my preference) or a Vibram topy (still good) sole.

I'd defer to @Leaves or other Bonafe connoisseurs on the last, edging, et al.

Who's in? So far I know @SteveL91 and myself. Anybody else?

Do they have a darker grain leather option? I was thinking a darker grain and then dark brown or espresso suede shaft, on Dainite or a sleek commando of sorts, flat welt. I think it would be a killer winter boot and highly versatile compared to the 64 last EG version. I could use a boot that can do double duty in the winter casually with denim or with some trousers.
So much this... Exactly what I am looking for. Oak grain lower, dark brown suede upper, victory sole just like the Galway for better aesthetics than commando but good winter traction, with a winter/closed welt. Would be in for this if we get enough for a gmto.

Just wanted to confirm that I'm still in for the EB longwing in Oak Tarnsjo and a Dainite sole is fine with me. I think it'll be a very impressive makeup.

363MOD works for me.

In for Oak Grain or Havanna Grain uppers, and Coffee Suede or Mink Suede Shaft. Closed welt.

Dainite (1st preference) or Ridgeway. No commando.

EDIT: Would be nice to close on this GMTO end of October to have a fighting chance for early February arrival.

I'm a fan of Dainite but for a Canadian winter boot, which is what this will be for me, it wouldn't really work.

Fingers crossed CS could source ridgeway soles.

I'd prefer regular danite soles but could probably deal with the ridgeway if that's the consensus.

I'm in!

Danite would be my first hand choice but ridgeway is okay
